Gov. Inslee bans indoor gatherings and dining as part of new COVID-19 restrictions

Gov. Inslee has announced new restrictions in an effort to curb the increasing cases of coronavirus in Washington state. His new order bans indoor gatherings and indoor service at restaurants and bars. Retail, including grocery stores, will be capped at 25% indoor occupancy.

“We recognize this will cause financial hardship for many businesses and the governor and staff are exploring ways to mitigate the impacts,” Inslee said on Sunday.

The new rules are effective at 12:01am Tuesday, except in the case of restaurants. Those rules go into effect at 12:01am Wednesday.

If the industry is not listed, it should continue operating under current guidelines. K-12 schools and childcare are exempt from the new rules and will also operate under current guidance.
